Bonds = Government and State
bonds were dull and steady.
Stocks-Tne new week on the Stock
Exchange opened With q dull market,
which presented few feature, OF inter-
est. The fact that today is holiday
in London, together with the usual
May Day changes, was responsible for
the limited business and the hopeful
views Of the situation which were 30
prevalent toward the end OF last week
were wanting today, the bears having
everything their own way. A
fractional rally occurred in the fore
noon, but with that one exception
there was no stay 10 the steady yield
ing of values from tho opening to the
close. Money was bid up to s per
cent in the last hour, to Offset which
sterling exchange rates were decreased
&c, but the latter received no notice,
while the former seemed to aid the
prevailing weakness. New England
in the fornoon and Union Pacific
later in the day received special
attention from the bears. Fort Worth
and Denver was specially strong, un-
der the support OF the clique, and it is
the only stock showing an advance
this evening. The market opened
weak at concessions from Saturdays
final figures OF t@s per cent.
The market was weak throughout,
although a slight rally occurred toward
II O'Clock, and the strength displayed
by Fort Worth and Denver kept the
market firm until neon. After that
time it was more animated aud re-
newed weakness, which was not
checked until the close, which was
dull and weak a. or near the lowest
figures of the day. Fort Worth and
Denver rose l per cent, but every
thing else is lower, and New England
